Comment Sounds like Crisco (Score 1) 159

Hydrogenated oils seemed like a miracle food because they didn't go rancid. It turned out that if microbes can't break them down, neither can the human digestive tract. We now know that hydrogenated oils are not safe. Bananas that don't spoil could be just as indigestible, and would be no good for banana bread in any case.

That's likely part of the problem.

It stocked a bunch of cool nifty things that people talk about but don't necessarily want to buy (or buy many of/often).

The museum gift shop description sounds like that to me anyway. Like I bet it has rope loop guns there.

Sort of like what thinkgeek was back in the day.

I've been to both.

Windy and 0degrees f in a NY winter is much colder.

Which isn't to say that temperatures in the 50s (especially after a sunny day) aren't light jacket weather. But NY winters are brutal. I've never felt the cold of sleety 35 degree day with high winds in San Francisco. To say nothing of a windy sub zero night.

I think it's more:

Company falling behind in AI tells everyone "let's slow down".

My understanding is that they're pretty similar in performance and an order of magnitude more expensive than the Chinese models (some of which are open weight), and behind Anthropic and even Alphabet now for work.

Comment Re: These companies need to bring charges (Score 2) 125

Only the government can bring criminal charges.

These companies can file complaints and hope the government tries criminal charges and the companies can file a civil suit.

We definitely need a way to attach criminal charges to entities that can't go to jail. I'd propose socializing the company for the length of the prison sentence before then returning it to shareholders.
